Andi Gutmans writes in a recent blog post about the progress of Zend_Amf in the Zend Framework since the partnership between Adobe and Zend:
At ZendCon this year we announced a partnership between Zend and Adobe. The goal of the partnership is to help make it easier for PHP developers to use Flex. Since then there has been a flurry of activity including blog posts and the introduction of Zend_Amf into the main trunk of Zend Framework.
As he mentions in his Blog, Kevin Hoyt posted several examples of how to use Zend_Amf for different things:
Charts
It became plenty obvious to me early on that charting solutions in the PHP world are lame. Busting out bitmaps on demand? Calculating dimensions, drawing lines, figuring out ranges? Whatever! These examples walk you through building really effective and powerful charts using the Flex Charting components. It starts simply enough with getting some data into a LineChart. Then we add data tips. Then we add styles. Then we add formatting. Then we add filtering. Then we add alternating views via a ViewStack. Then we pimp it out and bring the full Zend Framework web site look and feel into a fully interactive data visualization application.
And as Weierophinney said in the comments, Wade Arnold – the creator of Zend_Amf – posted also some important informations about Zend_Amf and AmfPHP.
For the latest progress in Zend_Amf and the Zend Framework try the 1.7 preview Release. You can download it here.
